Lee Garbutt: "From the get-go, there is an instant feeling of familiarity as we’re reintroduced to the titular character. Ultimately, our heroine is once again fighting the demons and angels that reside in various planes of existence, namely Paradiso, Purgatoria, and Inferno. All you need to know is that the fighting is as manic as before, while the extravagant set pieces are even more absurd right from the very start. Within those initial chapters I fought demons on skyscrapers, angels on fast-moving trains, and even on top of fighter jets in the middle of a city. I imagine these early stages are a good primer for a clear escalation of the absolutely mad action that will no doubt pervade the rest of the game."
Bayonetta's character design and abilities have changed a lot since the series debuted in 2009, with new costumes and dark arts in every title.
Many fans have been expressing their disappointment with Bayonetta 3. Here's why the recently released game is a clear step down from Bayonetta 2.
I thought they focused on big kaiju like fights which felt gimmicky and thy brought this new character in to try and get away from the leading star
*Spoilers*
I mean they pretty much killed 3 big characters. They killed Jeanne, Luka and Bayonetta herself and it's not the fact they died it's how they died, we've seen Jeanne and Bayonetta survive countless things yet they go out by the lamest ways possible.
Nintendo has updated Bayonetta 2 to version 1.2.0 and they have also shared the patch notes for this update on the Nintendo Switch.
My most wanted game this year.
Then you've got an agonising wait ahead! Luckily, we're going to have plenty more coverage to tide you over 'til October :)
A lot of previews being released right now. Hopefully this means a more specific western release date will be announced soon :)
Kind of boring preview for such an awesome looking game.
